ATL '02 finished 19 and 8, then '03 finished 32 and 30. Ouch
SDG '04 finished 18 and 11, then '05 finished 13 and 13
DAL '07 finished 9 and 13, then '08 finished 8 and 20 - meh, but points killed
HOU '11 finished 2 and 4, then '12 finished 7 and 9
DEN '15 finished 1 and 4, then TBD

Once was miserable, another was blah... overall, I don't really see the trend you speak of that might create fear, uncertainty and doubt. Again, I think this Denver defense has more talent across the unit than he has ever had.

U don't see it? Dang - just look at the stats you chose. Even they show the majority of time they slipped year two.
